I sometimes attend game conventions and meetings. Look for someone over 6'6" ( I used to be 6'7"), middle-aged (I am officially a senior citizen, in fact), overweight (I used to be impressed by 300 pound NFL linemen until I became nearly as large as one), salt-and-peppered and balding, grey half-beard, glasses. Rick Steeves (rick@sinister.net) has a game meeting at his house on the third Friday of each month, 7 until. I try to get there most months. I attend the Thursday evening NCSU Tabletop Gamers meetings when my teaching schedule doesn't interfere. It will interfere in the first part of 2009, most likely. I ordinarily attend Origins and the World Boardgaming Championships, the former to talk to publishers, the latter to talk with the Britannia fans and persuade them to playtest new games. Right now I expect to be at both in 2009. I make it to PrezCon in Charlottesville (Feburary) about every other year. |
